The record of the yard period

Reviewed 21 Aug 2026

48 m motor yacht, relaunched 2026. Two numbers count different things, and both come out of the same quotation.

+40%work added to the scope by the owner after she had already arrived
1%how far the line items we had priced before she came moved
1 dayahead of the redelivery date in the contract

Added line items were priced and approved before the work started; the lines already priced moved by 1%.

Every added line item went through the same route: finding, number, approval — then work barsmarine.com/projects#50-1
How the winter ran

She came in for machinery and left with a longer list than the one she signed

Item 50.2

The generator

Machinery space opened up during the generator work, with the shaft coupling and cable runs visible

The main generator was stripped, rebuilt and back on line in 8 days, with 5 contractor teams and our own people working alongside: twelve men at once in a confined space, to a date that could not move.

After the main engine work, vibration was measured by an independent specialist, not by us: in spec on sea trials, at full power and through turns.

Every addition was priced and signed off before anyone picked up a tool, and nothing started on a verbal.

Item 50.3

What was on the list, and what came after

She arrived for machinery. The work that grew came from what the panels showed once they were off — and every line of it was priced and agreed before anyone touched it.

What the captain did next

He has been back 3 winters running, and 3 more captains came on his recommendation.

I would definitely recommend them to fellow captains.
